BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

This invention relates to the field of wellbore equipment and more specifically to the field of tubing hangers.

2. Background of the Invention

Tubing hangers are conventionally located in the tubing head and attached to the topmost tubing joint in the wellhead. Typically, the tubing hanger supports the tubing string weight. The tubing hanger also seals the annulus from the upper wellhead and Christmas tree.

Tubing hangers have sealing systems and methods for testing seals. Such sealing systems include a variety of seals. Drawbacks to conventional sealing systems include the use of mud to kill the well, with the sealing system then typically being used. Killing the well with mud may be expensive and may also be dangerous to the wellbore. Further drawbacks include adding a frac valve to the top of the tubing hanger, with frac valves typically increasing costs. Additional drawbacks include inefficiencies in testing the sealing system. Drawbacks to conventional testing methods include inefficiencies and the expense involved in testing the tubing hanger.

Consequently, there is a need for improved tubing hangers and improved methods for testing and sealing tubing hangers.

In embodiments, production mandrel seal shoulder 180 is about perpendicular to a longitudinal plane of production mandrel seal portion 155. In addition, as shown in FIG. 4, production mandrel 80 has production mandrel internal threads 90. Production mandrel internal threads 90 facilitate attachment of production mandrel 80 to well equipment such as tubing of the wellhead. Production mandrel internal threads 90 are right-handed threads. It is to be understood that right-handed threads for production mandrel 80 refer to threads that connect to well equipment (i.e., tubing) when production mandrel 80 is rotated in a clockwise direction to connect production mandrel 80 (i.e., rotate production mandrel 80 to screw the production mandrel 80 into the tubing), and that allow the production mandrel 80 to be removed from the tubing when the production mandrel 80 is rotated in an anti-clockwise direction.

In an embodiment of operation of the embodiments of tubing hanger 5 shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 4, test mandrel 30 is inserted into interior bore 70 and attached to tubing hanger 5. In such embodiments, tubing hanger 5 may be disposed in a wellbore and attached to a tubing (i.e., the tubing is attached by tubing attachment system 25). In an embodiment in which suspension attachment system 40 is threads, test mandrel 30 is screwed into mandrel bore 60 in an anti-clockwise direction (i.e., left-hand direction) until test mandrel shoulder 145 contacts mandrel stop 120. When test mandrel shoulder 145 contacts mandrel stop 120, in an embodiment in which sealing system 45 has test mandrel seals 35, 35′, test mandrel seals 35, 35′ are energized. Pressure is then added to seal receptacle bore 100 through test port 15. The pressure may be added by any suitable method. In an embodiment, the pressure is added by a pump. Any suitable method may be used to determine whether the pressure is being held by the seal. In an embodiment, the method may include adding pressure with a pump until a desired pressure is achieved. When the desired pressure is achieved, the pumped is stopped, and the pressure in interior bore 70 is monitored to determine if the pressure decreases. Without limitation, a monitored decrease in pressure may indicate that tubing hanger 5 is not a closed system, and tubing hanger 5 has a pressure leak. If there is no monitored decrease in pressure, tubing hanger 5 is a closed system with no pressure leaks. The pressure may be monitored by any suitable method. In an embodiment, a sensor or sensors on the pump monitor the pressure. In an embodiment, the sensor is a pressure gauge. In an embodiment in which the monitoring indicates that tubing hanger 5 is not a closed system, tubing hanger 5 may be checked to determine the source of the leak. In an embodiment in which the monitoring indicates that tubing hanger 5 is a closed system, test mandrel 30 is removed from tubing hanger 5. For instance, in an embodiment in which suspension attachment system 40 of test mandrel 30 is threads and test mandrel 30 was screwed into tubing hanger 5, test mandrel 30 is unscrewed to be removed from tubing hanger 5.

After test mandrel 30 is removed from tubing hanger 5, embodiments include attaching production mandrel 80 to tubing hanger 5. For instance, in an embodiment in which production mandrel attachment system 170 is threads, production mandrel 80 is screwed into mandrel bore 60 in an anti-clockwise direction (i.e., left-handed direction) until production mandrel shoulder 160 contacts mandrel stop 120 and/or production mandrel seal shoulder 180 contacts seal receptacle stop 125. When production mandrel shoulder 160 contacts mandrel stop 120 and/or production mandrel seal shoulder 180 contacts seal receptacle stop 125, in an embodiment in which production mandrel sealing system 175 has upper sealing system 50 (i.e., upper seals 85, 85′) and lower sealing system 55 (i.e., lower seals 105, 105′), upper seals 85, 85′ and lower seals 105, 105′ are energized. In some embodiments, tubing hanger 5 may be pressure tested again. This pressure test may be accomplished in the same manner as the pressure test of tubing hanger 5 with attached test mandrel 30 or may use any other suitable method. For instance, in an embodiment, a portion of a joint of tubing is disposed outside of interior bore 70. The pressure is tested around the portion of the joint by applying pressure to the portion of the joint. If no pressure is leaked, production mandrel sealing system 175 is sufficiently energized. In embodiments, for production to commence, the back pressure valves in valve preparation bore 20 are removed. Without limitation, removing the back pressure valves facilitates production through interior bore 70.
